January News- National Lockdown

I hope you all had a good Christmas period. 

After one day back at school we now find ourselves in an all too familiar situation of a National Lockdown. For some children the next few weeks will prove very challenging and I would like to use this blog post to signpost you to some online wellbeing support.
